Please specify explicitly the envelope sender address for
administrator and recipient notifications in your config file,
e.g.:
$mailfrom_notify_admin = "virusalert\@$mydomain";
$mailfrom_notify_recip = "postmaster\@$mydomain";
$mailfrom_notify_spamadmin = "spam.police\@$mydomain";
Defaults for these settings were not useful with some
versions of amavisd-new, the 2.6.2 partly fixed the
situation:
amavisd-new-2.6.2 release notes
- envelope sender address for administrator- and recipient notifications
($mailfrom_notify_admin, $mailfrom_notify_spamadmin, $mailfrom_notify_recip,
%mailfrom_notify_admin_by_ccat, %mailfrom_notify_recip_by_ccat) was
not expanded when their value is left unspecified in a configuration
file and defaults to parsing of $hdrfrom_notify_* settings. This leads
to MTA rejecting a notification from 'postmaster@${myhostname}' by a
'501 5.1.7 Bad sender address syntax'. Reported by Aleksey Chudov,
Jonas Jacobsson, Durk Strooisma, and Adam;
but resulted in a missing "<" and ">" around the address, which was
fixed in in 2.6.3.
A workaround for the affected versions is to specify the
$mailfrom_notify_* addresses explicitly, like in the example above.
